3 possible reasons for me having MDD

[The1andonlyAbber]

My bad childhood: Okay, so I wasn't exactly abused or anything. I guess things could have been worse. But my childhood was still awful. About half of my memories are of disappointment, loneliness, stress, my parents arguing, and being bullied.

Needing a creative outlet: I was (and still am) VERY creative. I also have an extremely powerful imagination. Most of my daydreams are of things that could never be accomplished in real life, or at least not in my lifetime, such as living on another planet (that has dinosaurs on it) or having superpowers. I make a lot of art and stuff (and I also did when I was little) but my creativity just never seems to run out. It's useful and nice, but sometimes it gets to be a little hard to contain.

Heredity/ genetics: It's possible that my dad could have the disorder, too. He says that he has an imaginary island and always imagines that he's in a cabin in the woods before he falls asleep.

Interesting! Your creativity never seems to run out, that sounds fun haha. As long as you can channel it into art :) I get too tired after awhile to deal with things
